SECTION 1
ABSTRACT

Supercausal inhibition is the process of terminating active and preventing initiation of supercausal transit.

SECTION 2
SUMMARY

Supercausal inhibiton typically exists in four forms; short-range dedicated, mid-range group protection, long-range area-lockdown, and extreme-range networked lockout.

Short-range dedicated generally provides enough inhibition coverage to enable one asset taking evasive maneuvers against supercausal weapons.

Mid-range group protection has a similar function to the above, but to protect multiple assets instead of a single one.

Long-range area-lockdown is often used to secure individual solar systems or inhibition nodes and other important sites against fast-paced attacks.

Extreme-range networked lockout is composed of a network of inhbititors providing wall-like areas inhibition to prevent an opponent from moving around solar systems to perform a deepstrike without breaking through the 'wall' of inhibition.

SECTION 3
PROPERTIES

Supercausal inhibition methods are ordered by their date of initial development.

SPATIAL COUNTER-CONTRACTION

• MAXIMUM EFFECTIVE RANGE: 4 light-hours
• DESCRIPTION: Temporarily increases local space's resistance to artificial expansion and contaction of space.
• INHIBITS SUPERCAUSAL METHODS: Alcubierre

PARADIMENSION STATE-COLLAPSE

• MAXIMUM EFFECTIVE RANGE: 4 light-hours
• DESCRIPTION: Collapses the states of Slipspace and Hyperspace-Subspace, temporarily merging them into Ilgospace.
• INHIBITS SUPERCAUSAL METHODS: Slipspace, Slipwarp, Hyperspace, Hyperwarp

QUANTUM PULLEY

• MAXIMUM EFFECTIVE RANGE: 12 light-hours
• DESCRIPTION: Generates a causal-manipulation field around an object, selectively inhibiting supercausal transit.
• INHIBITS SUPERCAUSAL METHODS: All except for Quantum Flux-Displacement
  • EXCEPTION: Quantum-Pulley is incapable of forcing an object to exit Argospace, although it is capable of inhibiting transition in/out of the paradimension.

PHYSICS OVERWRITE

• MAXIMUM EFFECTIVE RANGE: 48 light-hours
• DESCRIPTION: Temporarily modifies universal constants in a local area, preventing any supercausal engines from functioning entirely. Consumes Phi-Matter in the process.
• INHIBITS SUPERCAUSAL METHODS: All known supercausal transit methods.
